Company
Josin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't wanna last
Don't want you to plead
Open sea
A tide in the dark
Pulling away
All around
Unless you know you leave
You don't have to stay
Into places where I cannot be
Down in the deep
Company
I don't wanna last
Just wanted to be

And, oh, unless you know you leave
You don't have to stay
Oh, unless you know you feel
Something else inside
Oh, unless you know you leave
You don't have to stay

I don't wanna last
Pulling away
Pulling away




Pulling away
Pulling away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Josin's song "Company" are at once haunting and powerful. The singer appears to be addressing someone else, telling them that they don't want to be involved in any kind of commitment or lasting relationship. The lyrics express a desire to remain free and unencumbered, refusing to be held back by anyone or anything. The singer describes the "open sea," a vast and uncharted world of possibilities, and seems to suggest that anything is possible as long as you're not weighed down by someone else's expectations or demands.


The metaphor of the "tide in the dark" is particularly striking. It seems to suggest a powerful and unstoppable force, drawing the singer away from the safety and comfort of familiar territory into the unknown depths of the ocean. There is a sense of danger and excitement here, a recognition that taking risks is an essential part of being alive. The repeated refrain of "unless you know you leave, you don't have to stay" further emphasizes the importance of freedom and independence. The singer wants to be able to explore the world without being tied down by anyone, and is willing to take the risk of being alone in order to do so.

@MIKROMATIQUE erbärmlich war vielleicht etwas zu hart ausgedrückt.
Wenn ich ehrlich bin, kann jeder Mensch seine Musik so gestalten wie er gern möchte.
Aber wenn es um Thom Yorke und seine Projekte geht, werde ich immer etwas wunderlich.
Das liegt daran, weil ich seine Musik schon seit Anfang der Neunzigerjahre verfolge und ein großer Fan bin.
Ich hab mir von Josin..Midnight Sun angehört, und festgestellt das der Bass von Cymbal Rush, das Piano von Pyramide Song und der Schluss von Atoms for Peace - Unless gewaltig wieder zu erkennen ist. Das stieß bei mir eben etwas übel auf.
Die Nummer klingt wie ein Thom Yorke Medley

Sie ist ohne Frage sehr talentiert, und ihre Musik hat auch Tiefe.
Aber das ging gar nicht ..

Full of emotion, the sadness of loneliness, the fears of breaking apart, the fears of seeing your self missing the other.. Perfect work.

When walking alone at night, even if it's a short time after work, I remember this song

Discovered this gem right in the turning point of my life. Blown away by the music, the voice and the breakdown of the song. Simply amazing

Good job! After only listening to the remix, I had no idea where this song was going to go.
